"Our results this quarter are indicative of a company which can quickly adapt to
economic uncertainty and re-focus efforts on business units which are insulated
to a recessionary impact, as a result, the company illustrated significant
organic growth, both year over year and quarter over quarter, through new client
acquisition while limiting operating expense expansion" said Owen Moore,
President at Grey Island "Further, we have a solid balance sheet with a healthy
cash position that will allow us to continue to capitalize on future
opportunities". 


"Factors such as increasing fuel prices, increased funding for public transit, a
need for improved mobile work force accountability in government fleets will
continue to drive demand for our products and services," said Andrew Moore, CEO
at Grey Island.
